Peanutty Perfection Noodles from Chloe’s Kitchen

Last week was busy, so I only had a chance to try one recipe, The Peanutty Perfection Noodles from our October VegCookbook, Chloe’s Kitchen.

They were crazy good. After the success of the Chinese Takeout Chow Mein, I was brave this time, and used the full amount of chili-garlic sauce. It was the perfect amount. Not too spicy at all.

I only made two modifications. The recipe called for brown rice noodles, which I couldn’t find, so I used linguini. It also said to shred the carrots, but the photo in the book made the carrots look more like carrot sticks, so I sliced them up into thin slivers.

I’ll definitely make this again. It was delicious and created lots of awesome leftovers (:

Oh my gosh, Kelley. That looks delicious! I’m glad to hear you found a good substitute for the escarole. I’ve been wanting to make that recipe, but couldn’t figure out where I could get escarole. I’ve added your photo to the VegCookbook Club Pinterest Board: http://pinterest.com/bbravo/vegcookbook-club/

I’ve used phyllo dough. What’s nice about it is that you can thaw it out and use as many sheets as you need and then wrap up what you don’t use and refreeze it. When you’re working with the sheets keep them covered with a damp towel. That’s always worked for me.

I usually like to make my own seitan but it was easier to buy it this time. The only brand I’ve bought is WestSoy. Sometimes I just buy a box of it and keep it in my freezer until I want to use it. New recipe on my blog for “Warm Spinach-Artichoke Dip”.

I finally got my copy of Chloe’s book from the library 2 days ago (wait list). Thanks to you all I knew what sounded good. I bought ingredients for peanutty noodles and avocado toast today! Her book looks great for my family…not too many recipes with nuts (we have to avoid tree nuts), which can be quite common in vegan cooking. I ordered it already. I appreciate that her ingredients are pretty basic. Wow, you guys did a lot if cooking…good job!
